Synopsis:
"Rethink" is a pastiche of a scene from the original movie JAWS. It uses the iconography of shark as man-eater but has a twist to subvert audience expectation. On a crowded beach a women screams in terror. People rush from the water. A classic triangular shape in the water turns out to be a toaster, something much more dangerous than a shark. Last year 791 people were killed by defective toasters. 4 by sharks. Rethink the shark.
